Background:
With the development of robotics, more and more robots are used in manufacturing. However, in actual work, safety accidents happen to robots from time to time. How to ensure the safe operation of robots in a limited and complex working environment is the key to improve robot technology. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the dynamic obstacle avoidance of robots in complex environment for improving the intelligence and safety of robots, and the application of human-robot collaboration.
Objective:
The primary purpose of this paper is to improve the traditional artificial potential field method, including he disadvantages that the improved target is inaccessible and easily plunged into local optimal solution of the drawback of the improved method, second. Secondly, the background difference method based on binocular vision and Kalman filtering algorithm, and the environmental map containing the static and dynamic obstacles is obtained. After obtaining the position information of static and dynamic obstacles, the robot arm can make good use of the improved artificial potential field method to plan its own trajectory, thus realizing the dynamic obstacle avoidance of the robot arm in complex environment.
Methodology:
The background difference method and the Kalman filtering algorithm based on binocular vision were introduced to track the dynamic obstacles, and the improved artificial potential field method for path planning was applied to the dynamic obstacle avoidance path planning of the manipulator. Finally, the simulation and experimental results show that under the complex environment with dynamic obstacles exist, robot arm can realize independent dynamic obstacle avoidance.
Results:
By using background difference method and Kalman filtering algorithm to track the target in real time, the result showed that the target could be detected and tracked well. By improving the defect that the traditional artificial potential field method is easy to fall into local optimum, the improved algorithm can well realize the dynamic obstacle avoidance of the manipulator.
Conclusions:
For the development requirements of the industrial robots in the future, this paper based on binocular vision, which can make the manipulator realize more intelligent industrial production activities in complex working environment, meet the needs of future industrial development, and make this technology play an important role in production activities.
